About Lutèce
At Lutèce Jewelry, we are more than just jewelers, we are storytellers, artisans, and guardians of a rich cultural legacy. Our passion lies in reviving the artistry of the past, meticulously handcrafting gold jewelry using ancient techniques that have stood the test of time. Each piece we create is a modern heirloom, designed to preserve the craftsmanship, symbolism, and profound heritage of Greek jewelry.
For us, jewelry is not merely an accessory, it is a bridge between eras, a tangible connection to history, mythology, and tradition. Our collections are inspired by the myths, legends, and defining moments of antiquity, ensuring that every creation carries a story waiting to be told. Whether drawn from the hands of a mythical craftsman or shaped by the echoes of a historic event, each piece is infused with meaning, artistry, and soul.
Our journey began 50 years ago, when our workshop was born under the radiant light and timeless aura of the Acropolis, in the heart of Athens, where the echos of ancient craftmanship merge seamlessly with the rhytm of modern life.
Today, as the second generation of artisans, we honor this legacy with the same dedication and enthusiasm, refining our craft while staying true to the authenticity of traditional techniques.
At Lutèce Jewelry, we don’t just create jewelry, we preserve history, celebrate craftsmanship, and bring timeless beauty to life.
The history of gold jewelry is intertwined with the history of human civilization itself. Gold has been treasured and used for adornment for thousands of years, making it one of the oldest and most cherished materials for jewelry.

Why do we prioritize using high-quality materials in our jewelry?
We prioritizing high-quality materials is a commitment to craftsmanship, longevity, and the satisfaction of our customers. It ensures that our jewelry not only looks stunning but also maintains its value, durability, and ethical standards, providing a meaningful and enjoyable experience for those who wear it.
We prioritize using high-quality materials in our jewelry for several reasons:
High-quality materials are more durable and resistant to wear and tear. By using materials such as precious metals like gold, and ethically sourced gemstones, we ensure that our jewelry can withstand daily use and maintain its
beauty over time. Investing in quality materials means that our jewelry will last for generations, becoming cherished heirlooms.
Jewelry made with high-quality materials holds its value better over time. Precious metals and gemstones have intrinsic value, and their rarity and desirability contribute to their worth. By using these materials, we create jewelry
pieces that not only bring aesthetic pleasure but also retain their financial value. It's an investment that can be passed down through generations or even sold if
desired.
High-quality materials enhance the overall appearance of the
jewelry. Precious metals like gold and silver have a natural luster and shine that adds an extra level of elegance to the design. Ethically sourced gemstones with excellent clarity and color contribute to the brilliance and beauty of the piece.
Using inferior materials may compromise the visual appeal and diminish the overall impact of the design.
High-quality materials ensure comfort when wearing jewelry. Fine metals and gemstones are carefully selected for their smoothness and hypoallergenic properties, reducing the risk of skin irritation or allergic reactions.
Comfort is a vital aspect of jewelry, as it should be enjoyable to wear for extended periods without causing any discomfort or distress.
Prioritizing high-quality materials allows us to ensure ethical and sustainable practices in our jewelry production.
We carefully source our materials from reputable suppliers who adhere to responsible mining and production practices. By choosing ethically sourced gemstones and recycled metals, we contribute to minimizing the environmental
impact of our jewelry-making process.
